铂莱娱乐场Overview of replacing stainless steel pipes for marine oil coolers:

Lianyungang Lingdong Electromechanical Equipment Co., Ltd. is engaged in the transformation of ship oil coolers and copper pipes to stainless steel pipes. 304/316l stainless steel heat exchange pipes have high resistance to vibration, scaling, and corrosion. Stainless steel heat exchange pipes have overcome the industry's previous challenges of reducing wall thickness to enhance heat transfer or using rolling screws on the pipe wall to weaken pipe stiffness, resulting in reduced wall thickness, enhanced heat transfer, and increased stiffness, Simultaneously possessing anti vibration and anti scaling properties. Marine oil coolers are mostly located near the sea, and the internal tube bundles are mostly made of titanium or stainless steel tubes or other corrosive heat exchange tubes. So, titanium tubes are commonly used for replacing pipes in marine oil coolers.

铂莱娱乐场Introduction to Welding Steel Pipe for Stainless Steel Pipe Replacement of Marine Oil Cooler:

Welded steel pipes (also known as slotted pipes and welded pipes) for replacing pipes in marine oil coolers are mainly used in auxiliary machinery in industries such as thermal power generation, chemical industry, and steel, such as condenser and heater pipe changing, tubular marine oil cooler pipe changing, oil-water cooler pipe changing, tubular marine oil cooler pipe changing, Le tube cooler pipe changing, steam turbine marine oil cooler pipe changing, marine oil cooler pipe changing, chiller - changing 304/316l stainless steel pipes, Condenser - replace 304/316l stainless steel tubes, heat exchanger - replace 304/316l stainless steel tubes, heat exchanger - replace 304/316l stainless steel tubes, shaft seal heater - replace 304/316l stainless steel tubes, steam seal heater - replace 304/316l stainless steel tubes, low-pressure heater - replace 304/316l stainless steel tubes, air preheater tubes, air cooler tubes, air cooler tubes, waste heat recovery device tubes, and volumetric heat exchanger tubes, Energy harvester tube replacement and related tube bundle tube replacement. Marine oil cooler tube replacement, marine oil cooler tube replacement, stainless steel tube heat exchange tube specification: diameter Ф 12~ Ф 32mm, with a wall thickness of 0.6-3.0mm. The deviation value of the pipe wall thickness is ± 0.05mm, and there are two types of lengths: fixed length and indefinite length- The types of stainless steel pipes used include 304, 304L, 316, 316L, 317, and 317L.

The main modifications to the pipes and cores of marine oil coolers include:

When purchasing a marine oil cooler for tube and core replacement, the cooling area should be informed, and the cooling forms are divided into LY type light tube (- use) and LYC type fin type. Stainless steel tubes are generally selected for heat exchange and cooling, and purple copper, brass, and titanium tubes can also be selected as heat exchange components according to user needs. According to the trend of economy, heat transfer, and results, most power plants choose to replace stainless steel tube bundles, which has a certain potential without reducing the rate! The replacement of stainless steel pipes for marine oil coolers is the mainstream choice for pipe and core replacement in power plants

铂莱娱乐场The function of marine oil coolers:

During the normal operation of the steam turbine generator set, some work is consumed due to bearing friction. The marine oil cooler will convert it into heat, causing the lubricating oil temperature of the bearings to increase. If the oil temperature is too high, the bearings may experience softening, deformation, or burning accidents. In order to ensure the normal operation of the bearing, the lubricating oil temperature must be maintained within a certain range. Generally, the oil temperature entering the bearing should be between 35-45 ℃, and the discharge oil temperature of the bearing should rise to 10-15 ℃. Therefore, the oil discharged from the bearing must be cooled before it can be recycled into the bearing lubrication. The auxiliary marine oil cooler is used to cool the lubricating oil of the main engine. High temperature lubricating oil and low temperature cooling water exchange heat in the marine oil cooler, and control the lubricating oil temperature by adjusting the cooling water flow rate (at the same time, due to the high rotor temperature, especially on the inlet side of the high-pressure cylinder, the journal of the marine oil cooler also transfers heat outward, so the lubricating oil also has the function of cooling the journal). In order to ensure sufficient safety and recovery of turbine oil cooling during turbine operation, the dual unit marine oil cooler consists of two marine oil coolers of the same area and a three-way valve. It can only work and be used as a backup. If the cooling effect is poor due to high oil temperature or high inlet water temperature of the unit, it can be put into use at the same time, or when cleaning and repairing the marine oil cooler is required during operation, the backup marine oil cooler can be opened without stopping the machine.

Series and parallel - missing -:

1. The series operation of marine oil coolers includes cooling and uniform oil temperature.

2. Shortcomings in the series operation of marine oil coolers: high oil pressure drop and inability to isolate oil during operation.

铂莱娱乐场3. The parallel operation of marine oil coolers has the advantages of small oil pressure drop, convenient isolation, and can be repaired during operation.

铂莱娱乐场4. The shortcomings of parallel operation of marine oil coolers include poor cooling performance and uneven oil temperature.

铂莱娱乐场Classification and specifications of stainless steel pipes for replacing pipes in marine oil coolers:

The classification specifications include stainless steel pipes, stainless steel threaded pipes, stainless steel corrugated pipes, 304 stainless steel pipes, 316L stainless steel pipes, etc. The stainless steel heat exchange pipes developed by Lianyungang Lingdong Electromechanical Equipment Co., Ltd. are made of high-quality stainless steel pipes.

Process flow of stainless steel welded pipes:

铂莱娱乐场Stainless steel strip, formed by cold drawing, hot drawing, and strip steel, is produced and processed through a series of processes such as coiling, welding, flaw detection, rolling, polishing, solid melting, and polishing for 304 stainless steel pipes and 316L stainless steel pipes; We can produce various stainless steel pipe specifications such as different pipe diameters, wall thicknesses, and length forms according to the needs of users.

铂莱娱乐场Process requirements for replacing stainless steel pipes in marine oil coolers:

铂莱娱乐场1. Preparation of stainless steel pipes: After passing the inspection, cut the stainless steel pipes according to the size of the marine oil cooler. The stainless steel pipes should be 4-5 millimeters longer than the pipe plate. Remove burrs from both ends of the stainless steel pipes, polish the expanded parts smooth, and perform tempering treatment at about 50 millimeters on both ends.

2. Remove old stainless steel tubes: Use a semi-circular triangular chisel to remove them. When removing, be careful not to damage the tube plate. Polish the stainless steel tube, remove the old stainless steel tube, clean the tube plate hole, polish it with a fine sandcloth, and wipe off the dust with a cloth.

铂莱娱乐场3. Pipe threading and expansion: After both the pipe plate and stainless steel pipe are prepared, they can be threaded through the stainless steel pipe. Be careful not to use too much force or force, align them with your own hole position, and install them. The exposed parts at both ends of the pipe should be equal. The diameter of the pipe plate hole is slightly larger than the pipe diameter, about 0.5 millimeters, and should not be too large or too small. After the stainless steel pipe is threaded, a pipe expander can be used to expand the mouth. When expanding the pipe, the force and speed should not be too large or too small. The length of the expanded pipe should be 2/3 of the thickness of the pipe plate, and should not be greater than the thickness of the pipe plate. After the expansion is completed, both ends should be flanged with a punch.

4. When replacing stainless steel pipes, it is necessary to replace them half by half, and then disassemble the other half.

5. The welded joint after pipe replacement needs to undergo leakage or damage testing.

6. The transformation of ship oil coolers involves replacing pipes and cores, and most of the entire ship oil cooler equipment is dismantled and shipped to our company for tube bundle replacement. This is more economical than on-site tube replacement - it increases the speed of tube and core replacement. The pipe replacement speed of marine oil coolers is slow due to the production time of pipes, as they are all customized. Once the pipes are finished, the assembly speed of pipe replacement can be completed in 3-5 days!

铂莱娱乐场Seamed stainless steel pipes (welded pipes, also known as straight seam pipes) are used for replacing pipes in marine oil coolers

The welded steel pipe used for replacing pipes in marine oil coolers is manufactured using imported pipe making equipment, which is equivalent to or slightly stronger than stainless steel pipes. The metallographic structure of the weld seam and the mechanical properties of the base material, strength, etc. are also slightly different. Due to the uniform thickness and smooth surface of the stainless steel pipe strip, it is indeed better than cold drawn, hot rolled, and seam stainless steel pipes of the same material. The elongation is greater than 35%, and the hardness is small, making it easy to expand and connect.

铂莱娱乐场The replacement of stainless steel pipes for marine oil coolers has the following features:

1. Stainless steel tube heat exchange tube heat transfer energy. Due to the use of thin-walled stainless steel tubes with a wall thickness of 0.5-0.7mm, the overall heat transfer energy is improved. Under the same heat exchange area, the overall heat transfer coefficient is 2.124-8.408% higher than that of copper tubes.

铂莱娱乐场2. Due to the use of American standard AISl304, 316l and other stainless alloy steels for the pipes, they have high hardness and the rigidity of stainless steel pipes is also significantly improved. Therefore, it has strong impact energy and anti vibration energy of high-temperature steam.

3. Due to the smooth inner wall of stainless steel pipes, the thickness of the bottom layer of the boundary laminar flow is reduced, which not only enhances heat transfer but also improves the ability to resist scaling.

铂莱娱乐场4. The process of replacing stainless steel pipes with heat exchange pipes for marine oil coolers can be achieved by using the expansion process of transmission. The outer diameter tolerance of stainless steel pipes is the same as that of copper pipes, and there is no need to change the machining tolerance of pipe plate holes, which is conducive to direct on-site selection and convenient for replacing pipes for marine oil coolers.

5.304/316l stainless steel heat exchange tubes are economical. Under the same heat exchange area, the cost of stainless steel tubes is about 80% of the cost of copper tubes, and can be directly transformed into tube bundles.

铂莱娱乐场In order to eliminate welding stress on heat exchange tubes, heat treatment is carried out at a high temperature of 1050 ℃ under protective gas.

铂莱娱乐场7. All pipes are subjected to pressure difference method for leakage inspection, with a pressure test reaching 1.0Mpa and a pressure drop of 5 minutes.

Marine oil cooler pipe replacement stainless steel pipe structure ---

1. Heat transfer energy difference, due to the use of thin-walled stainless steel tubes with a wall thickness of 0.5-0.8mm, the heat transfer energy is improved. Under the same heat transfer area, 304/316L stainless steel heat transfer tubes are about 1.2-1.30 times larger than copper tubes

2. Strong corrosion resistance, corrosion resistance, ammonia corrosion, and general corrosion. 304/316L stainless steel heat exchange tubes can be used for more than 10 years.

3. Due to the use of high-energy stainless alloy steels such as TP304 and TP316L as stainless steel materials, the surface has high strength, and the inner wall of the pipe is smooth, which reduces the thickness of the boundary laminar flow layer. Therefore, it has strong high-temperature steam erosion energy.

铂莱娱乐场4. The rigidity and vibration resistance of the pipe are improved.

铂莱娱乐场5. Strengthening the heat exchange tube has improved the ability to resist scaling.

6. The process of installing stainless steel heat exchange tubes can be achieved by using the expansion tube technology of transmission. The outer diameter tolerance is consistent with the steel pipe, and there is no need to change the machining tolerance of the tube plate hole, which is conducive to direct selection and convenient for replacing stainless steel tubes with copper tubes in the unit

7. Economically, under the same heat exchange area, the cost is about 60% of copper tubes, and stainless steel heat exchange tubes can be directly used for tube exchange.

8. Stainless steel heat exchange tubes are made by highly automated pipe making equipment, which is formed by self corrosion solution welding and flipping. Under any metal filler, they are filled with gas protection (inner and outer sides of the tube) and welded. The welding method is TIG process and undergoes in solution eddy current testing.

9. In order to eliminate the stress on the pipe, heat treatment can be carried out at a high temperature of 1040 ℃ under protective gas, or time-vibration treatment can be carried out as needed.

10. All steel pipes shall be subjected to water pressure pneumatic testing one by one, and the pressure shall be tested to within 10Mpa for 10 seconds before depressurization.

11. After leaving the factory, conduct eddy current testing on each tube, with a frequency of 10-30 kHz.

铂莱娱乐场12. The outer diameter deviation of the pipe is generally ± 0.10mm, the wall thickness deviation is ± 10%, and the length deviation is ± 5mm.

13. All pipes shall be checked for their full length using a gauge.

铂莱娱乐场14. The raw materials entering the factory and the finished products being shipped are both tested and a test report is issued.

The general principle for selecting pipes for tube bundle replacement is:

1. No severe corrosion leakage, use as long as possible, erosion and wear, vibration resistance, high heat transfer coefficient, and reasonable structure. For decades, copper pipes have been used in my condensers, marine oil coolers, chillers, and more, due to their high thermal conductivity.

铂莱娱乐场2. In practice, some copper pipes of the condenser are subjected to severe ammonia corrosion, while others are subjected to severe wear and tear. These two phenomena cause copper pipes to leak tightly, greatly reducing the use of copper pipes, reducing the safety and economy of unit operation, and increasing the time for shutdown and replacement of copper pipes. Therefore, many people have started to consider the issue of condenser pipe materials.

In recent years, stainless steel heat exchange tubes have been widely used in condensers, marine oil coolers, air coolers, low-pressure heaters, high-pressure heaters, air coolers, heat exchangers, chillers, and air preheaters. According to incomplete calculations, the units used are over 50%, including 50-300MW units. The use of 304/316l stainless steel heat exchange tubes has broken the traditional concept of only using copper tubes, improved equipment safety and economy, and reduced investment.

However, there are still many people who lack interest in using stainless steel heat exchange tubes for ship oil coolers. The main reason is that the thermal conductivity of stainless steel heat exchange tubes is much lower than that of copper tubes, which may affect heat transfer. For this reason, relevant units have conducted many studies on the overall heat transfer coefficient of stainless steel heat exchange tubes used in condensers, and have achieved great results. More and more power plants are replacing copper pipes with stainless steel pipes.

Cooling equipment - using stainless steel heat exchange tubes (cooling tubes):

Stainless steel heat exchange tubes and cooling tubes are produced using advanced automation, technology, and process. Select ASTM 304 and 316L standard stainless steel materials for good processing and production.

Stainless steel pipes are used for replacing the pipes of marine oil coolers -

-High temperature steam, erosion resistance, anti scaling, anti oxidation corrosion, strong vibration resistance, and wear resistance.

铂莱娱乐场Heat exchange - material -, thin tube wall, smooth inner wall, and enhanced heat transfer.

Safety: High temperature steam, erosion resistance, strong vibration resistance.

Economy - Same heat exchange area, cost savings (about 80/100 of copper pipes).

铂莱娱乐场Summary - Internal and external design and operation experience. Compared with brass pipes, welding of stainless steel heat exchange pipes in marine oil coolers has the following advantages:

1. Stainless steel heat exchange tubes are three times more corrosion-resistant, vibration resistant, and wear-resistant than copper tubes, and can be used;

铂莱娱乐场2. Stainless steel pipes are not easy to stain or scale, and can last for 10-20 years;

3. Although the thermal conductivity of stainless steel heat exchange tubes is inferior to that of copper, the wall thermal resistance only accounts for 3% to 5% of the total thermal resistance. Due to the increase in water velocity inside the pipe, the increase in cleanliness coefficient, and the decrease in wall thickness, the heat transfer energy of stainless steel is higher than that of copper alloy;

铂莱娱乐场4. The manufacturing technology, specifications, performance indicators, inspection methods, and scale of inner thin-walled welded marine oil coolers have all reached an international level;

5. The thermal conductivity coefficient of stainless steel pipes is lower than that of copper pipes, but the difference in thermal conductivity coefficient is reduced by reducing the wall thickness. Due to the smoother inner wall compared to copper pipes, the convective heat transfer coefficient is higher than copper pipes, and the smoother outer wall compared to copper pipes, the condensation heat release coefficient is higher than copper pipes. According to the testing and calculation of one unit, the overall heat transfer coefficient of stainless steel pipes with a wall thickness of 0.7mm is about 2.124% higher than that of copper pipes with a wall thickness of 1mm;

6. As the operating time increases, the overall heat transfer coefficient of stainless steel pipes decreases slowly, while the overall heat transfer coefficient of copper pipes decreases much faster than that of stainless steel pipes. In the long run, using it as a whole improves the economy of the unit, while also improving the safety of the unit.
